Pune Airport

Pune Airport (PNQ), also known as Lohegaon Airport, traces its origins to the 1930s and operates as a joint civil-military airfield alongside the Indian Air Force’s Lohegaon base. The single passenger terminal handles a busy mix of domestic and growing international services, making PNQ a mid-sized but strategically important gateway to Pune’s tech and academic hubs. Well connected to the city via NH48, Pune municipal buses, app-based taxis and pre-paid airport cabs (roughly 10 km from the city center), it’s accessible for business and leisure travelers. Generally budget-friendly thanks to a strong low-cost carrier presence—IndiGo maintains a major focus here—Pune is expanding routes and facilities to meet rising demand.
